The Value Of Accuracy.

The recent publication Of the life of
Charles Reade, the celebrated English
novelist, has brought to light some in
teresting "reminiscences of the man and
his methods of work. His habit of
collecting a vast number of newspaper
scraps concerning odd people, places
and happenings, is well known, but it
will probably be new to most readers
to learn that this custom was adhered
to in obedience to resolution formed
as early as 1858. In writing of his in
tention to become novelist, he says:
II propose never to guess where 1 can
know = - g. d,
He adds that this plan evil, I see,
cost me undeniable trouble" but the
immense mass of reference material
he left at his death proves how stead
fast he was in adhering to his determi-
nation. %..%s~
A like resolve to know, rather than
to guess, would be of immense help to
us all, whether novelists, business
men Or schoolboys. Contingencies
are arising every day in which he who
can positively testify to fact pos
sesses an immense superiority over
another who only 'thinks it may be

The CninamanAs Bride.

Narragansett Pier Letter. If notori-
ETY. brings misery poor Yam Phon Lee
and Mrs. Y. P. Lee, who are at the
Tower Hill house, must be having Q
wretched honeymoon. For whenever
they take their daily walks abroad they
are gazed at by hundreds Of curious
eyes. Unlike the ordinary bridegroom,
who is eclipsed by the halo surrounding
his hearts choice, Yam, for so one. must
suppose his Chinese mamma called him
in infantile days, gets the greater share
of comment and attention. His early
history he has sent broadcast in his
little book 'sWhen I was Boy in
China" He comes from q noble family
in Fragrant Hills, and was one of the
Chinese youths sent to have an Ameri-
can education. In 1880, while in his
freshman year at Yale, he was recalled
to China through some misrepresenta.
ton, but ran away soon after and re.
entered college. He graduated the
present year with the highest honors,
and President Dwight, whose protege
he is said to be, speaks very highly Of
him. Several lectures on China have
been delivered BY. him, and he has
written much, his style being terse and
clear. 0 @ts &. Il. .ss
Mrs. Yam Phon Lee is young but not
remarkably pretty; she is very dark,
but with blue eyes, has regular features
and dark brown hair. She was very
much admired in New Haven and,
although the good looking Monaghan
was a frequent caller, her marriage
was q complete surprise. Her wedding
dress was Of white satin, trimmed pro-
fusely with real duchesse lace and orllae
mented with orange blossoms. Miss
Elizabeth Maude Jerome that was. is an
heiress Of twenty fonr and has nice
little army Of five zeroes captained BY d
large-sized digit, The young couple
first met at reception in Hartford,
before Mr.. Lee was called back to his
native land, and the sequel shows that
the impression then made was strong
enough to cause q sacrifice Of country
and queue, and Van Phon Lee proved.
that Romeo dwells in China as well as
elsewhere.
